the only conspiracy with the Gnr induction is the theory that they got in because the rrhof wants publicity and the gnr drama will certainly bring that.

Yeah, over 2 million people are nobodies. Or just a few nerds. Yep.

well 2million people is a lot of fucking people if they were all in one spot, but in the grand scheme of things there are 7 billion people on earth and 2.6 million bought it

that's only 0.03% of the world population....a drop in the bucket really, so yea a few nerds big_smile

in the US there has been about 614,000 copies sold and a population of about 307,006,550

0.2% of the US Population has it so out of every 5 hundred only one person has it...in a crowd of 8000 on average you could assume that 16 peopel have it

I'm not advocating any further argument here, but you say only 2.6 million actually bought it, but what about the rest unaccounted for that illegally downloaded it instead...?

No-one sells big numbers anymore, and the fact that CD sold in the millions in 2008, was still quite a feat.

I think that's a pretty fair sumation.

Doesn't pretend the new guys made AFD/UYI and also doesn't pretend that Chinese Demo and the new band never happened.

Just calls it as it is really.

Yeah, but does that mean that everyone under the Guns N' Roses band name, gets in to this induction? From that bio, it seems that way.

No, just the original 5 along with Dizzy and Matt. It's like Fleetwood Mac, with all the members that were in the band and different line ups (there were a lot) they inducted Peter Green for founding the band, but inducted Lindsey, Stevie, Christine, John and Mick, and they skipped a whole lot of other members who had just as much right to be inducted. If they did though, it would have been like inducting an orchestra.

Is this what it's going to be like until April?

Just wondering, because I'm getting tired of it already.  People are so sensitive and argumentative.  I guess it's not alright to have your own opinions.  This is the way it is, so accept it or F' off.

Sorry to interrupt, carry on with this sure to be 5 month argument.

In other news.  I read the other day that HBO won't be airing this until May sometime.  So we'll have about a month in between when it happens and when we actually get to see it.  That kind of sucks.  I'm sure we'll get plenty of reports on what does or doesn't happen, but still.  Maybe someone in the crowd will record GNR's portion.

Is FUSE not airing it LIVE?  They used to.

And I agree about the arguing. Sorry if I added to the derailment into shitsville, guys.

Just don't think there's any need to shit on the new line up to praise the old. And to Bono's credit, he really didn't do that.
